He has also made a few forays into directing, the most famous of which includes the music video for [[the Cars]]' hit single "[[Drive (The Cars song)|Drive]]" in 1984. In 2010, he directed the music video for "The House Rules" by [[country rock]]er/Leverage co-star [[Christian Kane]]. He also directed several episodes of A&E's ''[[A Nero Wolfe Mystery]]'', in which he also starred.

Hutton starred in a [[Groupon]] commercial during the 2011 [[Super Bowl]], which drew public ire for the parodying of the [[Tibetan resistance movement]]. The commercials were pulled from rotation on February 10 after continued negative response from the public and activist groups.<ref>{{cite web|last=Dallke|first=Jim|title=5 Years Later, a Look Back at Groupon's Disastrous Super Bowl Ad|url=https://www.americaninno.com/chicago/groupon-super-bowl-ad-tibet-commercial-still-a-flop-5-years-later/|website=Chicagoinno|date=February 5, 2016|access-date=23 April 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180103235923/https://www.americaninno.com/chicago/groupon-super-bowl-ad-tibet-commercial-still-a-flop-5-years-later/ |archive-date=3 January 2018}}</ref>
